A few weeks ago, HCI Lab
researchers and colleagues from Terpsichore EU project have published a
peer-review paper at the Journal of Frontiers entitled "Digitization and
Visualization of Folk Dances in Cultural Heritage: A Review". The paper
presents an overview of the techniques used for the recording of dance moves.
The different ways of visualization and giving the feedback to the user are
reviewed as well as ways of performance evaluation. This paper reviews advances
in digitization and visualization of folk dances from 2000 to 2018.
Folk dances represent part of
cultural heritage and their preservation for the next generations appears of
major importance. Digitization and visualization of folk dances form an
increasingly active research area in computer science. In parallel to the
rapidly advancing technologies, new ways for learning folk dances are explored,
making the digitization and visualization of assorted folk dances for learning
purposes using different equipment possible. Along with challenges and
limitations, solutions that can assist the learning process are proposed.
